:-) I saw a similar example over a half-century ago - a zero ohm
source that is 100% efficient no matter what the load. A conjugate
match provides enough power to destroy the universe. Question is: If a
source impedance is a pure reactance, can it deliver any power?

Cecil,

Just solve this source brainteaser (that contains the capacitor) with
the principles outlined in a reference provided by you. Efficiency is
not of importance here, so please don't lure us into new non-relevant
issues.

Though its seems just theoretically, I source providing 100W at 4 MHz
with Zout is = 1 ohm (or less) can be made with today's components.
